Bose QuietComfort 3 ComparisonDenon AH-NC732 Comparison
Design
The QC15s look slightly more swanky and slightly better construction than the AH-NC732s.

The AH-NC732s don’t have a very strong high end.

| Bose QuietComfort 15 | Denon AH-NC732 |
Distortion
The AH-NC732s have significantly less distortion, since you can turn off the cancellation feature.

Tracking
The AH-NC732s have much more significant issues with tracking.

Isolation

Comfort
We thought the Bose headphones were more comfortable, but this is pretty much a judgment call: do you like over-ear or on-ear headphones better?

Verdict
The QC15s have a pretty big leg up on the AH-NC732s: they have arguably better sound quality and significantly better isolation. The problem is the QC15s can’t turn off the cancellation feature or play back music without a battery.
